My problem with Johns post is that it is one more in a long series of proclamation by him and others that...."if you are a true follower of God then you have to have my political viewpoint."

The Roman government of his day was brutal and oppressive yet Jesus had little to say about it or it's policies, except to say... "follow their rules" even when oppressive.

What i see happening right now, more on the left than the right, but to some degree on both sides, is that politics come first and theology is then made to fit the politics.

I am struck by how John's post is a lot like the preaching by Jobs friends who claim to know with absolute certainty the will and intent of God for Job and the world.

I do appreciate the respectful dialog.
